ripgrep

ripgrep prioritizes your productivity by focusing on what matters: your source code. It rapidly searches for regex patterns while intelligently ignoring irrelevant files. This includes files matched by .gitignore, hidden files, and binary files, which are skipped by default to present clean, actionable results. When you need to search everything, the rg -uuu command disables these smart filters. Offering top-tier performance and native support for Windows, macOS, and Linux, ripgrep is a go-to tool for developers. It builds upon the concepts of predecessors like ack and grep but delivers significant improvements in speed and usability.
